In my left there is a injury in my ankle and near by fingers. This happened in june, becoz of exercise. After few days I consulted a orthopedic, he gave me some medicine and suggest for complete rest. I followed this for months but my leg didn't recover till now. I also consulted a physiotherapist ,he said that metabolite and some extra mass is deposited on muscles, so firstly he gave deep heating and then broke the extra mass by mobilization to free the muscles for faster recovery. But now Dr. is not treating well, swallowing is continue in leg. please suggest what to do.

Leg swelling generally occurs because of an abnormal accumulation of fluid in the tissues of the lower extremity. Common causes of leg swelling include idiopathic edema (swelling of unknown cause), overweight, is older, salt retention, cellulitis, congestive heart failure, venous insufficiency, pregnancy, and medication side effects. Some tips that may help reduce swelling: 1.Put your legs on pillows to raise them above your heart while lying down. 2.Exercise your legs. This helps pump fluid from your legs back to your heart. 3.Follow a low-salt diet, which may reduce fluid buildup and swelling. 4.Wear support stockings (sold at most drugstores and medical supply stores). 5.When traveling, take breaks often to stand up and move around. 6.Avoid wearing tight clothing or garters around your thighs. 7.Lose weight if you need to.
